300 blk ammo is as cheap as $11.08 a box!
Falkkon00:
Mostly for hunting purposes(not yote, but whitetail Boar etc) The 223 will more than do me right for the yote and just target shooting. I guess its more along the lines of what is a second caliber people have had good success with thats not to expensive to shoot yet wields the knockdown power and yet will still be some fun to shoot. Clip size dosnt really affect me as the way i was always taught raised and learned is once shot is all you need. (Not saying Im a sniper by any means, but know where to shoot to drop an animal when I need to) But from the sounds of it the 300 seems to be a pretty good choice both from a finacial standpoint and a hunting/shooting standpoint. Any particular brand of upper you guys have had more luck with against any others? And good info on the key, I will look into that.
70 grain TSX works fine on deer.
Check your state regs.
I’d never discourage someone for buying a gun/upper because they want something.
have fun.
Before this thread I had never even heard of or seen the .450, I thought you were talking about the .458 SOCOM. I’d have to agree with the majority and say get the .300 Blackout. The cartridge is wildly gaining popularity and is becoming relatively easy to find in mom and pop shops (for a damn good price.)

The 450 will do much better for hunting, the 300 has less power than a 7.62x39
